I could think of maybe 50 where I would wish there was an Australian. Mostly related to crocodile hunting.

Edit: also, a lot of countries are bi-lingual where English is the second language. So they will always make my list.

I've lived in Canada all my life. Doesn't mean I know the first thing about making maple syrup. I'll wager 99.9% of the people in Australia have no idea about hunting crocs.

Right now

My fiancée is in the US and we're working on getting her the fuck out of that backwards shithole

So just her.

when there is a door that is locked but it opens when someone fits the american-shaped hole next to it perfectly

Would that imaginary hole-shaped american come up and anxiously go "that's my hole ! it was made for me !" ?

Like, a Colombian, or an Argentinian or a Costa Rican?

Honestly, all the time. They're awesome folk!

Trying to figure out if the mesquite smoked brisket served anywhere that isn't Texas is worth it?

Urgently needing to get rid of a purloined crate of Ozempic while the po-po is beating down the door and some dickhead clogged up the toilet?

Dunno really.

American, willing to be your brisket judge. Tex-mex too.

Nice try buddy, but if I'm paying for brisket, you better believe I'm going to be the one eating it. On the other hand... I'm Danish and the Tex-Mex around these parts is - well - I would pay you for that. Acting as a food taster deserves fair remuneration. And hazard pay.

I'm somehow forced into a couple's hotdog eating contest.

This question has me bside myself. I haven't lived there in more than a decade, though, so not sure if I count anymore. I was trying a joke and realized that I am, at least technically, American and had to stop, heh.

Needing to track a wild animal, picking medicinal plants, sending a smoke signal, building a wikiup, etc. the possibilities are numerous; although not sure all of these ancestral skills survived very well to this day.

Where did i say i hate americans? Also you are aware we here are talking about the average, the default.

This is one of those opportunities where you can either learn from the information given to you or deny it and purposely remain ignorant.

Go back to your original statement and replace "Americans" and "Chinese" with "Blacks" and "Jews" and tell me how that reads.

You reached the end

What kind of situation would you have to be in to think, "I really wish there was an American here right now." | Spyke
